Switching to a gluten free diet has been shown to have a myriad of health benefits, particularly for people with a gluten intolerance or celiac disease. Too much gluten in your diet can result in symptoms like fatigue, migraines, stomach issues, and vitamin deficiencies. If you’re experiencing these things it could be worth making one change and switch to a gluten free diet. This can seem like a challenge at first as lots of the tastiest foods contain gluten, but it’s easier than you might think. It’s even easier if you’re armed with these delicious gluten free recipes.
